Thank you very much G-Man!!

Glad you enjoyed the preflight presentation and its only half of the full one that is on the actual film but we didn't want to overload here as people would leave the video before the takeoff :)

Thanks so much brave captains, for beautiful, interesting, great video, 👍👍🙏🛩💖💖best wishes, from WhiteAngel 🎧💫🤗🤗💖💖💖💖Wish absolute good luck in every flyings and always easy landing 🤗🙏💖💖💖💖see you very soon 🤗😇💗

Oh Oh, sorry to hear that. Hope you have your power back. Thats very annoying... but thanks for watching and commenting!

Thanks Chris and got the message about keeping the music out... we only do this very rarely when we post a trailer for a new film but our complete films don't have any music, just the pilots talking and ATC.

Hello

@@justplanes Hi

Glad you enjoyed the video

Here are some answers I found: "-The APU is started just after the flight crew enter the flight deck for the flight, so that the aircraft can have self contained power, and also provide air conditioning to make the passengers happy when they board -The APU is then switched off after the engines have been started, as now the engines are providing air conditioning and electrics, so there's no need for the APU, but make sure you have the generators and bleed air switches on for the engines before disconecting the APU!! :-) -The APU is next switched on just after the landing, usually while vacating the runway, this is to prepare the aircraft for engine shutdown so that air conditioning and electrics will still be available, once again, make sure you have the APU bleed air and generators switched on before shutting down the engines. -The APU is then switched off once the flight crew have finished with the airplane and ground power is connected." "External power is not really a very reliable power source, it has a lot of fluctuations that could cause the relays to reject that power source. If you don't have the APU running, this could result in a cold cockpit quite fast. Not very ideal when you are aligning the IRS's or setting up the FMS. So some flight crews start the APU right after getting inside the cockpit, and disconnect ground power right after that, as the APU is a very stable power source." From what I can gather, a lot of it depends on airport policies on APU usage as well as company policy. I understand the 787 is very reliant on electrical power (it uses electrical power instead of bleed air for some systems), so a clean reliable source is more critical I guess.

@@patrickmitchell6968 If required, can all the auxiliary equipment be run on ground power? Because, quite a few airlines do connect ground power to their air crafts. What might be the possible use of ground power in these case?

@@393nimit Just to let you know that I'm by no means an expert, just an enthusiast. To answer your question. In theory I think so. However, remember in addition to electrical power, the aircraft (and passengers as they board) needs air conditioning. Ground power alone would not provide that. You would have to attach external A/C. With the APU running, it can provide the bleed air for the PACKS to provide air conditioning. Now I'm not sure if the 787 requires bleed air for the PACKS. It's new and fancy and uses electrical power for things that used to be run on bleed air - like I mentioned in my first reply.

@@patrickmitchell6968 Same here. I often see planes where the APU is switched on as well as the power lines are connected. Cannot comprehend the use case in such scenario.

@@393nimit In such a scenario, I would imagine the APU would be providing bleed air for the PACKS (air conditioning) as ground power doesn't do that. Only if you connected an external source of air conditioning then you probably wouldn't need the APU. Also remember in most planes you need a source of bleed air to start the engines and the easiest place to get it is the APU. You can start externally, but that requires a compressor or something to provide the high pressure air.

This is the charter TUI Fly Belgium, formerly branded Jetairfly (it does say Jetair on the fuselage). Jetair also was a German charter in the 1980s.

Looking at the date shown on the FMC this was back in 2014

This was filmed 5-6 years ago and Jetairfly which was part of the TUI group was renamed TUIFly Belgium which is more in line with all the airlines of the group but basically same company, same livery etc...

@@justplanes @yaronsteinbuch @adammuscat thanks a lot for your replies.

Gear Up.......Flaps five!..Checked!
